• unlike null mice, the size and morphology of the superior colliculus, neocortex, hippocampus, thalamus, and cerebellum are normal
|
• retinal ganglion cell axons exhibit targeting errors, mostly as multiple ectopic terminationzones, along the mediolateral axis of the contralateral superior colliculus
• temporal and ventrotemporal retinal axons are misprojected along the mediolateral superior colliculus axis to inappropriate lateral positions and slight anteroposterior malpositioning
• retinal axons exhibit misdirected interstitial branching during development
|
• increased branching
• however, primary axon length and dendritic morphology are normal
